Research Center for Information and Communication Technologies, Department of Computer Engineering, Automation and Robotics, University of Granada, Granada, Spain.

Robots have to adjust their motor behavior to changing environments and variable task requirements to successfully operate in the real world and physically interact with humans. Thus, robotics strives to enable a broad spectrum of adjustable motor behavior, aiming to mimic the human ability to function in unstructured scenarios. In humans, motor behavior arises from the integrative action of the central nervous system and body biomechanics; motion must be understood from a neuromechanics perspective.

Background: Limb-salvage surgery for malignant bone tumors can be associated with considerable perioperative blood loss. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to assess the safety and efficacy of the intraoperative infusion of tranexamic acid (TXA) in children and adolescents undergoing limb-salvage surgery.

Methods: All participants were <18 years of age at the time of surgery and diagnosed with a malignant bone tumor of the femur that was treated with resection and reconstruction with a megaprosthesis.

Benefits of Using Functional Joint Coordinate Systems in In Vitro Knee Testing.

J Biomech Eng

January 2025

Department of Biomedical Engineering and Lerner Research Institute, Cleveland Clinic, 2111 E. 96th Street, Cleveland, OH 44106.

To measure knee joint kinematics, coordinate systems (CS) must be assigned to the tibia and femur. Functional CS have been shown to be more reproducible than Anatomical. This study aims to quantify the benefits of using Functional CS in in vitro testing.
